Cigar Weekly

Good grief. After years of complaining about how they have turned out, I've placed three orders from there in the last month. None of it has been that good so far, but it's like I just can't help myself trying to relive the glory days. Just ordered up some Maria Mancini in EMS and Maduro, and some El Rey del Mundo Oscuro. Maybe these will scratch the itch.

And I sort of just wanted to use those emoticons again.

I used to love the ERdM's in Oscuro. Came in a nice box, too. My wife still uses it as a jewelry box. With at least three years of age, they were a fantastic cigar.

Good to see you back, Red. Stick around...things here are looking up.

Wish you would have gotten in on the sales a couple weeks ago. Tent sale for presidents day and the weekly special after that. ERDM was part of it, hoyo, excalibur, just a huge, enormous pile of top stuff for $2-2.50.

They had the Ultimate Principale in X for $2.50. Dude, I spent almost $100. All villazon. All $2. All free shipping.

No, I don't expect that all of the home brands have retained the quality that you were used to, but most if this may be that you've moved on and have higher expectations.

The ghost of Red comes around every once in a while. You're right Jason, I need to visit more often. Brian, I got them all for around that and free shipping right now. I just ordered five packs, and still thought they were a great deal. 10 and change for the MM, and 14 for the Robusto Larga ERdMs. Not bad.
